Last night a gang of around 6/8 young men, mostly white with longish hair, caused problems in our street at around 11pm last night- they were clearly drunk and intent on drinking more, carried orange plastic bags (Sainsburys?) full of cans and bottles of alcohol, and walked up and down Ewelme Road shouting and screaming eventually stopping to sit on someones wall to drink the contents. Some then decided to relieve themselves in a neighbours garden followed by attempting to break into cars and bend side mirrors. The finale included trying to aim empty bottles at passing cars (unsuccessfully due to lousy aim) which resulted in the road and pavement being plastered with broken glass. The police were called but could not catch them. They looked like they were around 18-20 years old .

Has anyone had similar experiences and knows anything more about them, as the police are looking to catch them.?This is the first time I have seen them however judging by the empty bottles and take away leftovers in our front garden in the last few weeks they have doing this for some time. Any info appreciated as they have the potential to cause serious damage, intentionally or otherwise.
